Several Chiefs Etched Their Names in the Record Books in 2017

The Kansas City Chiefs fell short of the ultimate prize this season, but 2017 was still a season to remember as the Chiefs set a handful of records that bode well for the future.

That conversation begins with rookie tailback Kareem Hunt, who became just the sixth rookie in the Super Bowl Era to lead the NFL in rushing this season with 1,327 yards on the ground.

Hunt took the league by storm right away, setting an NFL record with 246 yards of offense in his professional debut. He tallied a touchdown of at least 50 yards in each of his first three career games, becoming the first player to ever do so, and his 100-plus yards from scrimmage in each of his first seven games are an NFL record.
